She always put a smile on my face!!!
My mom was one of my biggest inspirations to see the good in people and do good. I am so grateful that she was able to be in my life and help inspire me in so many ways. She was always the biggest supporter of me being on a mission and always found ways to make me smile even though we were so far away. I'm eternally blessed to be her son and hope that I can help that memory live on.

Jay and I were best friends in college. She taught me how to be less serious, more light hearted, and how to grab life by the tail and just have fun. She was so funny! I used to marvel at her happy energy and fun spirit. I truly loved her. We stayed in touched through the years when our lives went in different directions. My oldest daughter said that she remembers Jay as my "fun friend". And Jay was my fun, loving, joyful friend. Life went on, but we remained friends and stayed in touch. I am so grateful for her friendship and for her love.
My sincerest condolences to her parents, siblings, children, and husband,

I worked with Jay in the Bingham Creek Stake YW camp. She was amazing and inspired me in so many ways. I so appreciated her enthusiasm and unconditional love. The world was a better place wherever her influence was felt. I am so very sorry for your loss.
Jay and I worked together at the Utah Section PGA. All of us could always count on Jay for two things: Whatever she was doing would be done perfectly because she cared so much about the people it was for. The other thing that Jay brought to the office was a sense of fun and adventure that kept us all relaxed and in a good mood. So pleased that she found such happiness in her family.
Sincere condolences
